German Neil Young Tribute Festival in August

germany-rock-the-garden-2010.jpg


Fans in Germany are planning a big Neil Young open air festival tribute this summer.

On August 20 and 21, 10 bands will party and pay tribute in Pößneck (Thuringa). Some of the finest Neil tribute bands in Germany like Eric Rust & The Never Sleeps band, Change Partners, Tino Standhaft, Andreas Schirneck, Helpless and Bozz Rockband (over 4 years in the top 10 of Neils "Songs Of The Time") will play. Also the legendary Monokel from East Germany and Neil Young's support band from the last year in Germany Wolfgang Michels. There will be a place to camp beside the festival for free.

All information about the festival (also with "bad English translations") on www.rock-the-garden.de. You can also listen to radiostream about the festival with music and small interviews from all bands.

If you have any questions contact: jensseverin@neil-young.info

Also, see the German Neil Young site: www.neil-young.info.

Thanks Jens! Prost!

Hey Jac,

thanks a lot for your comment !!
It was a big pleasure for us, to play in your hometown La Ciotat last year.
And we are proud to be a part of the "Rock-The-Garden" festival this year in Thuringia, Germany.
We invite all friends of handmade rock music, to come to Poessneck in August!
Thuringia is a beautiful country and the location "Lutschgenpark" is simply perfect for a open air festival!
Cheers from Germany
Roland
